Hello there, everyone! You could say that I have just begun learning Japanese. I started my Japanese interests mainly because I love manga and anime, but I also am simply fascinated by Japan's history and culture. I know some of the basic hiragana characters, and I know a couple of Japanese words like ganbatte and omoshiroi. I bought a Japanese grammar book, which has also helped me understand the language a little better.I might not be seen often in the next few months because of school, but I will definitely spend more time on this website in the summertime!
